Travel documents

Depending on your destination, a travel visa may be required to enter the country in addition to a valid passport. Brussels Airlines may check for a valid visa before allowing passengers to board a flight. Immigration officers in certain countries will deny entry to travelers who do not have a valid travel visa.

ESTAs

Travelling to the United States? All eligible international travellers who wish to travel to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program must apply for authorization. If you are planning to transit in the USA or intend to stopover on the way to your destination, you will still need to apply for an ESTA.

Please note that if you transit through or stopover in the US to travel to Canada (or vice versa), you will need both an ESTA and an eTA.

eTAs

Travelling to Canada? As from 15 March 2016 visa-exempt foreign nationals who fly to or transit through Canada will need an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA). Exceptions include U.S. citizens and travellers with a valid visa. If you are planning to transit in Canada or intend to stopover on the way to your destination, you will still need to apply for an eTA.

IMPORTANT
Please print a paper copy of your e-visa. A digital copy will not suffice. If you are unable to present a paper copy of your visa upon arrival, you will be denied entry to the country and a penalty fee may be charged.

ETAs

Travelling to Australia? Wherever you live, and whatever your nationality, you must always check that you have the correct documentation before you begin your journey.

View the specific requirements you may need for travel to Australia and follow the step-by-step instructions to apply for your ETA.

East Africa Tourist Visa

Off to Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda? Then remember that these east African destinations offer a joint tourist visa obtainable from any of the three countries’ embassies. Apart from saving money compared to the price of the separate visas, the East Africa Tourist visa also saves on red tape. For more information visit www.visiteastafrica.org/visa-2/

E-Visa for Kenya

As from 1 July 2015 all visa applications to enter Kenya are made electronically and have to be obtained before your travel. You can apply for your eVisa via www.ecitizen.go.ke.
